There is a very interesting article over at the BBC talking about what we are looking for on the Internet. As explained below.
“The most searched term for Google users in the UK was Facebook while the BBC came second and its iPlayer service was the fastest rising query.”
The top ten world list was even more interesting:
Sarah Palin
Beijing 2008
Facebook login
TuentiHeath Ledger
Obama
Nasza Klasa
Wer Kennt Wen
Euro 2008
Jonas Brothers
I kind of find it strange that people search for the Facebook login page via Google. I would have thought that they could manage to type that one themselves. The top ten in the UK were:
BBC
YouTube
eBay
Games
News
Hotmail
Bebo
Yahoo
Jobs
Obviously social networking is up there. I have to confess too that I have typed in Sarah Palin and You tube. Most of the others are not on my search list.
